[20090604] - Core - Frontend XSS - HTTP_REFERER not properly filtered
An attacker can inject JavaScript or DHTML code that will be executed in the context of targeted user browser, allowing the attacker to steal cookies. HTTP_REFERER variable is not properly parsed.

[20090605] - Core - Frontend XSS - PHP_SELF not properly filtered  
An attacker can inject JavaScript code in a URL that will be executed in the context of targeted user browser.

[20090606] - Core - Missing JEXEC Check
Some files were missing the check for JEXEC.  These scripts will then expose internal path information of the host.
